Yenti also had to begin preparation today. She left her cave, and all her bodies behind, save her favourite head. The head of a man, handsome, and decietful. She carried it with her everywhere, because it was that which had cursed her. The head of her former lover, did not rot, it did not wrinkle. It stayed as it had been the day she had met him, so long ago..
Yenti snapped out of this thought. Now was not the time to think of him. There would be time enough for that when to Angels were destroyed. And when they were, she would take their purity and grace, and bestow it upon her and her lover, and they would be together again. This thought made her happy, as happy as one so dark could be, and she travelled down the dark path to where ahe would battle. Darklings followed her, their captain.

Aiko and Toshi flew in the group of other, mostly older, Angels. Aiko looked around, her quiver and bow were strapped to her back, and her sword was clipped onto her belt; she looked at Toshi, her face was unreadable, and her naginata was strapped to her back.
"Toshi, aren't you scared, even a little bit?" Aiko asked, "I know I am, but I know I won't perish, I saw it...after the nightmare I had last night, I saw that I will not persish...but unfortunately that's all I saw," Aiko looked at Toshi's still unreadable face.

*looks to Aiko*
No, I don't think so.. These are made of a special fabric... chameleon cotton... have you heard of it?
*looks down at the landsacape below as she waits for an answer form Aiko*
%Those legends of back home... of that dark girl who spins dreams and stays in her cave full of dead bodies... could this be her? I thought she wasn't reall...%

They reached the edge of a cliff. The army of Darklings stood and watched their leader look over the edge. Yenti turned and adressed the group of dark angels. "Legends of old have told of us. Creatures fear us. The very sun and moon waver in front of us! We are the Darklings, and we have power. More power then the Angels! More power then the Dragon Tamers! Humans fall before us! We go to battle now, and we will have victory! The blood of our enemies shall be spilt tonight, and we shall have a feast of dead angels tomorrow!" The evil crowd cheered. Yenti was again pleased. She would create monstorous visions to any Angel that fell asleep. And their numbers would fall, before the greatness of the Darklings.
Yenti swooped off the cliff and flew into the air. What seemed like a black cloud followed her. The Darklings flew to war.

Aiko looked at Toshi, her clothes did look a bit...different,
"No, I haven't heard of those before, and you're not scared?" she started twirling around again, her arms spread out at her sides, she laughed as she remembered one of her mother's old songs, that she would sing to her when she awoke with nightmares.
"In the times of old...when the monsters roamed. There were heros, brave and bold...they never lost their hold...on their dreams!" she sang, Toshi looked at her, smiling at the silly yet comforting song; "I never thought it'd come to this...when children became the fighters.....when friends would split...when war would arise. Hwo did this come to be? why won't you listen to me....stop your fighting...stop your wars....I don;t care what you look like....just come be my friend," Aiko made it up as she went along.
"I hate wars, I hate fighting, and I hate discrimination. Why are we fighting anyway? The universe is big enough for different species..." she trailed off as tears rolled down her cheeks.

I am scared of course... Though.... I would do anything to get away from my family and the people around there...
*looks to Aiko who was crying*
Don't cry... it wasn't our fault that the war was started...i have no idea of the origin of the war...

Aiko thrust her fist down at her sides, like she was hitting an invisable table,
"There is no origins...there is no reason.....just because we're different," she said through clenched teeth; she wasn't feeling much like herself. An angel nearby who had heard them flew over,
"It's okay, Aiko, was it? I understand you completely. These 'elder' people who think the universe is only beg enough for one species...they're wrong...you know, I actually have a friend who is a human, but I've never told anyone before," she said, she had long blonde hair and violet eyes. Aiko smiled at her, wiping her tears, she took the other girl's hand,
"Thanks, you know, I had a friend when I was younger, she was a runaway, and...she was a darkling..." she trailed off at the other girl's gasp, then relaxed when she smiled.
"You befriended a Darkling? Wow, no wonder I wanted to be your friend, you're just way too nice," she said, "Oh, and my name is Kyasurin, Kya for short."

*descends to the ground and begins trying to make a small fire ((big ones might attract attention))

They were nearing the decided battleground.
Yenti felt a trill of excitment go through her like an electric shock. 'Those foolish Angels.' she thought, 'They believe that this war was started by discrimination? Ha! I started this war, with a few well spun dreams, and some evil rumors.' Her seargent, Rumish flew up to her and said: "We are fast approaching. In another day we will be there." Yenti nodded. "But, I fear the angels will have a better chance. They have devestating weapons and skill." Rumish quivered as she sid this. The rath of Yenti was mighty. "Do not fear, Rumish. The hearts of Angel's are weak. The care and pity others. They may have skill, but their lack of fighting spirit will be their end." Rumish nodded and went back to her post. 'Soon, my beloved.' Yenti thought, looking at the head in her hand. 'Once the Angels are defeated, then their purity will pass to us and we will live once more.' Yenti drew her sword.

Aiko followed with the other Angels to where Toshi had stopped, she still held Kya's hand, liking the new girl who had shared her thoughts.
"Wow, the whole tribe followed her," Kya mused, looking weirdly at Toshi, "What do you exactly know about her?" she asked Aiko, who shrugged.
"Not much, I only met her yesterday, and only because I share a room with her," she said, not thinking anything about it; "I don't like snooping in other's backgrounds, anyways. But I like sharing mine," she said as she sat down beside Toshi, and Kya beside her.

Toshi:
*says a prayer*
Alright I think I'm going out for the night... wake me when it is my turn to stand watch alright?
*smiles cutely before laying down and falling asleep*

Aiko looked at the sleeping Toshi,
"Y'know, I don't really think she's a people person," she said, looking at the nodding Kya;
"So, you like telling people about yourself...?" Kya inquired, Aiko smiled, catching the hint.
"I am the daughter of Lord Kisho, my mother, Siena, died when I was 110, three years ago. She was killed by a Dragon Tamer, but even so, I do not despise all of the Dragon Tamers," Aiko looked into the small fire, she held her hand over it, using one of her special abilities to show the pictures of her past to all who were listening.
"I have an older brother, but he fell ill some time ago, his name is Kishoichi, though I call him Sho. My father has always been a fighter, and taught me to fight when I was 50, I know how to fight without weapons, with a sword, bow, throwing and flat knives," as she named the weapons, the fire showed her practicing each.
"But my mother, I learned much from her, she taught me to dance, sing, and to always be happy, even at times of peril. When I was 70, I met a girl, her name was Akako, and she was a Darkling, though a runaway and didn't like the other Darklings. Me and Akako used to play, and sing together, and we made this song, my favourite song... A twinkle in the night sky, far, far away. A single star I gazed upon in my dream." Aiko's voice went to a higher, beautiful pitch, "On a sleepless evening, I sing alone. Tomorrow I'll sing with you, on the wings of the dream." The other Angels clapped as they looked at Akako through the fire pictures, she was a girl with long red hair, and red eyes, she was a cute thing; they could hear her voice sing along with Aiko's.
"And so, when the war called it's starting horn, my father sent me here, to fight in this horrible war. I hate to use my skills seriously, but I will fight for my people until the day I die," the fire showed Aiko among many other Angels, all of them with their chins up high, their hair billowing in the wind; a fighter's scene.

Yenti thought of naught but the victory she so dearly wished to behold. As they stopped to rest in a cave in the growing dark, she stared into the long dead eyes of her lover. While the other Darklings feasted upon several victims they had found, Yenti longed for her lover's kiss. And slowly she leaned towards the head, and the cold dead lips of the man she had found so decietful touched hers once again. And in that moment, Yenti knew that she must win.
She did not reat that night, and at the first break of morning, her scouts brought back something of great value. An Angel, who had been wandering alone, and captured by her patrolling Darklings. The struggling Angel was brought before Yenti. Her long blonde hair and violet eyes stared up at Yenti with hate. "You cannot succeed, you bitch!" The Angel said, spitting at Yenti's feet. Yenti approached her and took hold of her head in her hand, to examin her. "So much hate, so much anger is inside of you, young Angel. Most uncommon for your kind." Yenti said sweetly. "I know what you think of. And it will not happen! I would rather die in the name of my people, then join you." The Angel said. "What, is your name?" Yenti sniffed. "Kya." The Angel said "I do not plan to kill you. I think your warrior skills and anger will be of great service to me. You will join us in the end. You'll discover, how much better it is to be a Darkling!" Yenti finished. Kya just glared and spit again. "Take her away, and torture her, until she agrees to join us, or until she turns into one of us." Yenti commanded, pushing Kya into the arms of several guards. A chorus of dark laughter, and chaotic crys came up from the cave. Kya could be heard screaming, as she was dragged away. Yenti looked at her head. This new girl would be her spy and assasin. And this war would soon be won.

A lone figure in a silent forest had seen the battle that day. She's now currently in cave, it's entrance hidden by thick vines on the mountainside. 'Hmph, foolishness. Thank goddes our people dont care for this silly thing they're fighting over. We're better off without bothering with them'She watched as the flames flicker in front of her. The campfire was sole source of ligh in the dark cavern. She closed her eyes intent on getting rest. There will be lots of walking to do tommorow. (I'll be posting her description next time.)

Toshi (dream not awake lol):
*She walked forward and suddenly her feeling of almost belonging dissapparated. She looked around to find the sky was multishades and colours. She began walking again and she came upon a well that she had not seen coming. It was dark and looked foreign amongst the green grass.
she looked down it to find a dead dove. She fell backwards. She had never seen such an innocent creature dead amongst such a dark place. She got up and looked behind her, expecting someone or something to be there, her senses told her she was not alone. There was no one there, and as she turned back around the well was gone as well.
She had never felt so lost in her life
((sorry i knew I should post but i didn't know what to do so I did the first thing that came to my mind. Welcome to the RP Reiyuki ^_^ Glad to have you))
